In all honesty this is heavy/power metal at it's near best. I had listened to "Battle Hymns", "Sign Of The Hammer" and "Triumph Of Steel" before this opus, but hell. This blows them away. From the intro blast of Return Of The Warlords to the end notes of The Power it is an album to be respected by all.
The sound is akin to "Triumph Of Steel" but hailing more to Judas Priest's classic "British Steel" (just listen to The Gods Made Heavy Metal and Breaking The Law) with Eric Adams vocals proving once again that he is up there with Halford and Dickinson.
Overall the album is sincerly recommended for all upholders of true metal. All you ***** who are "down wit' da Limp Bizkit" better step the **** back before they get thrown back.

The album oozes greatness in every aspect, the only possible critisism is the bass lines which are similar, but joey de maio has already proved himself as the greatest bassist ever to grace the metal or rock scene.
The guitar solo 'my spirit lives on' drips with blistering and unadulterated technique

Okay, maybe this is premature with the new album just around the corner, but I was dissappointed with "Louder than Hell". I have to agree that it feels lighter and songs that would have been killers with previous Manowar production like "King" just feel a bit weak. Listen to the first album Battle Hymns and tell me this isn't a band capable of alot more (the line up is almost identical). If you are looking to try-out Manowar for the first time and are into the more commercial ends of the traditional metal spectrum go with Kings of Metal (with the unbeatable Blood of the Kings), or Fighting the World (just hear Defender and Black Wind, Fire and Steel).
Or for something a bit more raw try the first four offerings (my personal favourites). The only conclusion I can reach for DeMaio et als loss of direction is that they seem to have risen to meet everyone's expectations of them as a parody of themselves (or maybe more explainable by the loss of former guitarist Ross the Boss). For the next album I think expect more of the same as "Louder than Hell" but I sincerely hope they have taken their heads out of their arses.

Not as good as Kings of Metal
I don't know, maybe it's me, but this album feels a little "lighter" than some of their masterpieces, theres something missing but I can't put my finger on it. Read more
